Singapore Consulate-General in Jeddah

Earlier this week, the Singapore Consulate-General team attended a film screening event organised by the Philippines Consulate-General in Jeddah. The movie - Song of the Fireflies (2025) - was an inspiring movie that followed the journey of the Loboc Children's Choir in sharing their musical talent to the world and bringing pride and honour to the Philippines. The movie has won the Best Asian Feature and the Mayor's Choice Award at the Chandler International Film Festival in Arizona, USA. Thank you for the invitation!

Haj 2026/1447H has officially come to an end for . As with yesteryears, the Consulate-General was heartened to have had the chance to work with MUIS to ensure a smooth and meaningful pilgrimage experience for our pilgrims. Our pilgrims have now returned to Singapore, but we look forward to serving Singapore pilgrims again at the next Haj season!

In observance of Eid Aladha holidays in Saudi Arabia, please be informed that the Consulate-General will be closed from Sunday, 24 May 2026 to Monday, 1 June 2026.

Singaporeans in need of urgent consular assistance during this time can call our duty phone at (966) 50 559 6481.

We will reopen on Tuesday, 2 June 2026.

بمناسبة حلول اجازة عيد الاضحى المبارك في السعودية، نحيطكم علمًا أنه سيتم اغلاق القنصلية العامة من يوم الأحد، ٢٤ مايو ٢٠٢٦ إلى يوم الإثنين، ١ يونيو ٢٠٢٦.

سنعاود العمل يوم الثلاثاء، ٢ يونيو ٢٠٢٦.

Haj begins in about three days. We pray that all our pilgrims are in the best of health and spirit to begin their sacred journey.

Earlier this week, Consul General Chandra Kumar accompanied Acting Minister (Muslim Affairs) Assoc Prof Muhammad Faishal Ibrahim to engage Singapore pilgrims and inspect Masyair sites before the Haj rituals begin.

We are heartened to note that everything is in order for a smooth experience. As our pilgrims embark on this once-in-a-lifetime act of devotion, we hope that each of them is blessed with safety, comfort, ease, and a deeply meaningful Haj experience this year.

2027 will be a bang for us! In January, our Lions will be making history, competing at the Asian Football Cup tournament for the first time in 43 years. Singapore’s only other appearance at the competition was in 1984 which we hosted in Singapore. Last week, the draw to determine Singapore’s grouping took place in Riyadh. Singapore is in Group D alongside with Australia, Tajikistan, and Iraq.
